About
With over 25 years of hands-on experience, I specialize in residential and small commercial locksmith services, including lock repair and installation, re-keying, master key systems, key-alike setups, construction keys, and garage door reprogramming and opener installation. I’m also available for door repair, as well as exterior and interior door and window installation.
As a licensed, insured, bonded Residential General Contractor, you can trust that your home or business is in professional hands. I stand behind my work: if something I installed or serviced fails, I’ll return at no extra labor cost (except in cases of defects in products purchased by the client).
If you’re looking for reliable, detail-oriented lock and door service from a one-person pro who cares, I’d be happy to help.

Pedro came by within a day of asking for a quote on our front door replacement. He was thorough, responsive, and extremely helpful! He got us a great price on our door and once the door was built he was able to get it installed within the same week.
The install was smooth and easy. Would easily recommend him for any and all projects for doors and the like!

Pedro from Tovar Locks was wonderful and very professional. They put in better doors than I imagined we’re going to be put in and really nice door handles. Everything works so much better. I wish I would’ve used them in the first place when I remodeled my house. I highly recommend these guys. You will not be disappointed.

I’ve used Tovar’s Locks twice. First Pedro installed my Schlage Lock and the 2nd time my lock ran out of batteries while I was out of town. Thankfully Pedro saved the day by installing new batteries for me so I was able to get home and into my house with no hassle on a weekend. Pedro is very knowledgeable, responsive and has gone above and beyond expectations!

Hi we had a good experience with his business. He responded to our request quickly and was able to come see us in a timely manner. He was friendly and did a good job installing our new door lock key pad.

We had a very complicated lock installation on a vintage door. After installing two other locks, this door needed the deadbolt moved to an old filled in spot and a whole lot of adjusting, especially on the jam. I knew I theoretically could do it but… probably not well. One locksmith turned me down because it looked too complex but Pedro texted with me a bit about it, we scheduled a time, and he came over and nonchalantly got everything working and looking great. It was clear he had seen this and much much worse before, and he was able to get everything working perfectly and easily. Next time I have any door or lock issues, I’m definitely calling Tovar’s!
